The Pearl River News OF the lSt
and SLh inst. contains articles on the
State Senatorship in answer to a
former article in The LEADER which
we would reply TO if that question
had not now been finally settled.
We will say to the News, however,
that it was not 1.-THE good
Democrats of Lincoln" that we
meant would ever desert the nomi-
nee, in any contingency that might
arise, but the other sort. Now that
the question has been decided in
favor of Marion, The LEADER will not
suffer anyone to surpass it in loyal
ty to the cause of that county's
favorite son, and we say this all the
more cheer fully because we recog
nize in DR.. Ford a gentleman of
culture, integrity, and all the attri
bates which adorn a seat in the
State Senate. Personally no man
in the District is worthier of the
support of the people.

A Prominent Democrat Com mend:
the Addr ess of Our Executive
Committee.

One of the best known and most
prominent Democrats in Mississippi
has the following to say in a private
letter to the Editor of this paper,
which we take the liberty of publish,
ing:
assure you Of my sincere concur
renee in the able and patriotic adj
dress of your County Democratic
Executive Committee. Although it
is intended to have local appll-
cation. the rule laid down has wi
der significance. No organization
can maintain its integrity and use
fulness without discipline and a
strict adherence to its principles.
To permit it to become a convenient
instrument for its enc mies and allow
them TO play fast aud loose with it
to suit their whins and their
schemes, is to disintegaste and
eventually to destroy 1t.

We are gratified to note that the
removal of the trial of Hamilton to
another district will not cause
District-Attorney r. n. Miller to
sever his connection with the case,
He will be q tower of strength to
the prosecution, and the shameless
effort of some of Hamilton's attor-
neys to besmirch his character in the
interest of their client will strength
en- him with the friends of law and
order throughout the State. In
fact, no better evidence Of this need
be wanted than the fact that the
good people of his District have
already decided to re-elect him to
the office which he has filled for
four years with 80 much ability and
faithfulness. Hurrah for Bob
Miller!
